Show News

Sunny showed again this weekend in Regina, Saskatchewan. He took 3 more BoB for 4 points, including the all important 2 point win he needs for his Championship. He now needs only 2 more single points to get his title! Thank you Tobi-Dawne!

It was a good weekend for chihuahuas. in Regina, the nice Chihuahua gang there finished one longcoat boy and another nice pup took a very nice Group 4 win. Congratulations to Rosalie, Paul and Darwin and the gang at Dragomir Chihuahuas.

I'm waiting for news from Karin on how she did at the Fort St John shows, but her friend Linda (and travelling mate) got a nice Group 3 on her Ch Daisy and a BPIG on her boy Elvis, who is another Tag son (like Neddie)!

Great weekend all around :)

Neddie, Glory and I are off to Victoria next weekend for the VIDFA shows. We are entered only two days, but are going more to visit friends. After that Tobi-Dawne meets us in Nanaimo, BC for the shows there and the Island Toy Specialty.

Puppy Plans

Phoebe has been bred to Ch Jeep. These (hopefully) will be my first puppies in 9 months. I am looking forward to having some squeakers again.

Sunny's Next Shows

Sunny and Tobi-Dawne were out at the Hub City Shows at home in Saskatoon, SK.

Our little guy went Best of Breed all 3 days for 3 points.... Yay! He sounds like he is having more fun in the ring now, even if that means a straight line is harder to walk... :)

Congrats to Tobi-Dawne and little Sunny... Good job you two!

Sunny's First Shows

These past two weekends, Sunny had his first shows. He is showing with our friend Tobi-Dawne on the prairies. Last weekend (April 10-12)at the Battleford shows, he was alone for Breed, so no points, but lots of practice, as they got to go in for Adult and Puppy Groups as well. No Puppy Group wins (we were hopeful!) as there was a Puppy CH Min Pin being specialed who took Puppy Group every time!

This past weekend he showed at the Edmonton Kennel Club show and the Toy Dog Club of Alberta Specialty. He took Reserve Winners at the Specialty and Winners on Sunday at the regular show for his first point. Yay!

Their next shows will be the first weekend of May back home in Saskatchewan. Good luck little guy!

... and another

Determined to single his way to his title, Ned won one more point this past weekend going Best of Winners. He took Reserve the next day, due to being a grumpy little donkey that didn't want to walk .... LOL

One More

Neddie took one more Best of Winners win Friday March 6 for one point handled by our friend Cheryl Ellis. This was the only point available from the classes, so he did good. Lots of good practice with Cheryl too.

Cloverdale Shows

This past weekend we took Neddie to Vancouver again for 2 days of shows.

Friday was much the same as last month, he didn't like the table, didn't like the judge... but I liked the competition, so did not feel bad...

But things did go better Saturday. The judge was very kind, and he stood very nice for him. He chose look at the bite last, which I think made some difference. I have learned to gait him more quickly, so he looks nicer, and does not pull on the lead so much (which makes him lifty in the front when he pulls)

We took Best of Winners Saturday for 2 points. 5 more points to go ....

I heard from Tobi-Dawne as well. She took Sunny to a Puppy Match Saturday, and he placed Toy Group #2. She thinks he is doing really well and can't wait to get out to the "real shows!"

So Saturday was a good day for my two boys!

This month Neddie will go to two shows with a trainer, Cheryl Ellis of Cherfire Collies. I hope she'll break his table habits, as he behaves much better with her. I'm such a pushover.... haha
